AND THEY WERE TOO EXPENSIVE BACK THEN, TOO!! /Guru
News to me. I know I never purchased a new game for my Nintendo that cost more than $40. I don't remember seeing $70 price tags during that time.

I remember seeing $70 for games like Super Mario RPG, Final Fantasy 3 (6) , Chrono Trigger, etc.

Doubt it. If I can't get on live on my xbox, it won't get touched. I know this is true for the majority of gamers. No one buys games anymore just to play the CPU.

Disagree.

I think multiplayer should be a component, but not the main focus.

Disagree. I hate online gaming. If they took away single player games I would not even waste my money on a system. Yes, I know I am the minority but you still don't want to alienate the minority either. Can you imagine the gaming world without Uncharted and Batman, two of the greatest series ever created? JMHO of course

exactly. If the lowered the price for single player games and gave you the option to pay for the online component I would be all for it.

I would have to say that out of all of the games that I own.....I only play online with one of them. And that's only in the online franchise mode of NCAA.....and that's with friends.

I ****ing despise online play for the most part.

Unless it is whisper quiet, I won't buy it. Xbox is attempting to be much more than a gaming device, and when not gaming, the noise makes it useless.

I think I have a miracle 360.. Bought at launch, never red ringed, quiet as ****..

But the way the next console war is turning out I will not be buying a MS product..

And it is dumb for them to neuter the reseller market, Gamestop is probably their biggest seller of new games.. Hell, Bestbuy and other companies have gotten into reselling games..

If they want to hinder them, drop the cost of new games down to 40bucks or cheaper.. People will buy more.. I don't buy any new games unless it is COD to play with friends..
